Large Multimodal Model Robustness to Distributional Shifts in Chart-Based Tasks

Abstract

Abstract: This report synthesises findings from 13 peer-reviewed papers addressing the following research question: How robust are LMMs trained on MMC-Instruction to distributional shifts in chart types or domains, as quantified by cross-domain accuracy when tested on unseen chart datasets. 12 claims were extracted from source literature; 2 were independently verified against retrieved documents. An automated multi-reviewer quality assessment produced a score of 5.9/10. This report is a machine-generated literature synthesis and does not constitute original research.

Research Question

How robust are LMMs trained on MMC-Instruction to distributional shifts in chart types or domains, as quantified by cross-domain accuracy when tested on unseen chart datasets?

Verification Level

Descriptive public verification status only; aggregate claim counts are public, but individual claim records are not exposed here.

Quality Tier

Descriptive public triage only; this tier does not alter current publication or DOI behavior.

Quality Dimensions

Automated triage signals derived from public fields; not human peer review or independent validation.

Correction Record

Public corrections are additive records. Current status does not claim the synthesis is error-free.
